We divide 164779 by 56
We want to figure out the number of times 164779 can be divided by 56.

On to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 56, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 16 / 56

On to step 2:
The number 56 fits into 16 0 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 16, we end up with 16.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 164 / 56

Moving on to step 3:
56 goes into 164 2 times with a remainder of 52.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 112 away from 164, we end up with 52.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 52, then repeat: 527 / 56

Moving on to step 4:
56 can be fit into 527 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 29.0
Deduct 504 from 527 and we're left with 23.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 23, then repeat: 237 / 56

Moving on to step 5:
56 goes into 237 4 times with a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 294.0
If we subtract 224 from 237, we get 13.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 13, then repeat: 139 / 56

Moving on to step 6:
The number 56 fits into 139 2 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2942.0
If we take 112 away from 139, we end up with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
56 can be fit into 270 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2942.4
If we subtract 224 from 270, we get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
56 can be fit into 460 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2942.48
If we take 448 away from 460, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 120 by 56, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2942.482
Deduct 112 from 120 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
80 divided by 56 is 1 with a remainder of 24.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2942.4821
If we subtract 56 from 80, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 56 fits into 240 4 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2942.48214
Subtracting 224 from 240 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 160 by 56, we get 2 with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2942.482142
Subtracting 112 from 160 leaves us with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 56 fits into 480 8 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2942.4821428
Subtracting 448 from 480 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
The number 56 fits into 320 5 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2942.48214285
Subtract 280 from 320 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 2942.48214285, with a leftover of 4e-08.
